The conversation basically went "throw the rear shock in the bin and fit a YSS unit. As for the front... useless! Just aim where you want to go, and hang on!"
The 150SP forks are slightly better, having a slightly larger diameter, but are still basically just a damper rod, and although a little more refined, still mostly useless.
Regarding performance, I knew the 150SP top-end is much better than the 150RR, but couldn't remember to what extent, so didn't want to comment until I could confirm it. It has been 20 years since I looked at one, after all! The 150RR has a steel liner [that often masks the ports in areas], and old school porting, whereas the 150SP is an all alloy, Nikasil plated barrel, with NSR250 style porting.
